Set in Geneva in the aftermath of the political turmoil in Europe in 1968, the story follows the intertwined lives of a disparate array of characters: an unemployed typesetter and union militant, a factory worker, a secretary, a couple who runs an organic truck-farm, a copyeditor, a history teacher and a supermarket cashier — four men and four women — whom Tanner called his “little prophets”: Each grapples with political disillusionment and thinking about new ways of being. Tanner described the film as “a dramatic tragicomedy in political science fiction.” Jonah perfectly crystalizes the mood of the early 70s, a mixture of failing political projects, fraying revolutionary ideals, along with an enduring sense of hope and possibility (Telluride Film Festival)
